The Denver Broncos signed seventh-round draft pick and third-string quarterback Zac Dysert to a four-year contract Monday that included a $48,200 signing bonus.

Now Dysert goes to work on making the 53-man roster.

“I was talking to my agent (Mike McCartney, son of Hall of Fame college coach Bill McCartney) before the draft and this was our No. 1 pick,” said Dysert, who played four years at the Miami (Ohio) University.

“Everything worked out perfectly. I did take a visit here — loved it from the minute I got here. It was like, ‘God’s got a perfect plan for me and this is the place for me for his plan to work out great.’ I’m here for a reason, so I’m just going to take it as best as I can and run with the opportunity that I have.”

The Broncos kept three quarterbacks last year because second-stringer Brock Osweiler was a rookie and third-stringer Caleb Hanie was veteran insurance.

But now that Osweiler is the most experienced of the backups to Peyton Manning, it’s possible the Broncos will only carry two quarterbacks on their roster.

Several NFL teams kept but two quarterbacks last season, while placing a third on their practice squad.
